Since it's midnight and I don't feel like getting into an argument,?? I'll just say this...how do you know Azulon was not a bloodthirsty killer. We saw him is ONE episode, and he said maybe 3 lines. Not the kind of info to make assumptions on.??If you're saying a mother wouldn't kill a dog if it had it's child in it's teeth, and it had the intentions of killing the child, you obviously don't know how mothers can get.
Think about it "hmm, this vicious dog is slaughtering my child, but killing it would be wrong"
I'm using the word dog in place of Azulon.
Using the dog attack example to my own advantage, My sister was attacked by a german shepard. He had her by almost the eye. You should have seen my mother! The only reason that dog lived was because he could run faster. had he been asleep, she??would ??have been????able to do it.
What makes you think poison is so blatantly obvious? Perhaps she slipped in his mouth while he slept. Drinks arent the only way to poison!
And the most MAJOR thing you are forgetting is this
"You must know the pain of losing a first born son"
Son does not equal wife! Azulon wanted Ozai to know that pain! They are not by any means the same pain! Zuko is Ozai's flesh and blood. It's not the same at all, and I don't believe Azulon would have accepted??Ursa??in his stead.
